Does anyone else have this issue? Mine tries to go left while driving on the highway. I know it isn't because of road crown, and I have never had that issue in any other car. I took it into the dealer for it a few times, the first time they told me it was just a low tire pressure, but I'm pretty sure they were fine cause I had just checked them the day before, then they told me it was how the road was sloped (road crown) and I knew that wasn't the case and then they sent it out for an alignment. It is a little better, but it is definatly still pulling. Has anyone ever had this issue? How did you deal with it?

Mine did that but it was out of alignment. I had an alignment done and the problem went away.

Could also be the actual grooves in the road from high travel. My 240SX will pull like that if it gets in a groove a certain way.

I haven't been in a groove in a certain way since the late 70s

So what would people of the nicoclub forum suggest? Taking it back to the dealer yet again?

I don't want to seem like a complainer, but at the same time, I paid for a brand new car so I would avoid issues, so I would like everything to work as it should, and this alignment issue shouldn't be an issue.

If you don't want to be a complainer then your problem will never be resolved. Take it back and tell the dealer that it still pulls to the left and make them redo the alignment. If it still pulls after that have the service writer go for a drive with you so that they can see that it still pulls. If the dealer gives you to much hassle I would just go to a different dealer and explain everything to them.

If the car is not performing as it should then the dealer should be constantly harassed until it is fixed. A call to Nissan Customer Support to complain about the dealer if they keep refusing to fix it may help. Going to a different dealership is always a viable option. Don't take "no" from the dealership.
